Yep! I see the whole OS as a very bare version of an OS.  There is no
concept of a process, so you just start new threads, and every thread
just happily run without any barrier from the rest of the system (no
virtual memory, no protection from the other threads, etc). It's fine
for certain domains, I suppose, but it's weird when you're not used
to this sort of thing.

I will do so immediately in the version that we have.

Thanks for the review!
